Masih Hindustan Main (Jesus in India)

The prime aim of writing this book is to remove the mistaken belief existing among Christian and Muslims that Jesus (peace be on him) ascended to the heaven alive… And he will appear sometime in latter days. The difference between these two beliefs is that Christian believe that Jesus (peace be upon him) died on the Cross and after resurrection ascended to the heaven with his physical body and got seated on the right hand of his father, and in the latter days, he will descend to earth to hold court… And he will throw every person, who did not believe in his divinity and that of his mother, in hell …The above mentioned sect of Muslim say that Jesus (peace be upon him) did not die on the Cross, nor was he crucified. However, when Jews were about to arrest him in order to crucify him, an angel of God came and took him away to heaven in his physical body and up till now, he is sitting in heaven alive… and in the latter days, riding on the shoulders of angels he will descend near a minaret of Damascus or near somewhere and with the exception of those who become a Muslim, he would not let anyone alive. (Masih Hindustan Mein, pp.5-6, Ruhani Khazain, vol. 15, pp. 5-6)

The Promised Messiah (as) further observed:

Therefore, in this book, I will establish beyond any measure of doubt that Jesus (peace be upon him) was not crucified and did not ascend to the heaven and no one should entertain any hope that he will descend from heaven. He, having reached an age of 120 years, died in Srinager, Kashmir and his grave is in Mohalla Khanyar. (Masih Hindustan Mein, pp.14, Ruhani Khazain, vol. 15, pp. 14)

The Book 

In this book, the Promised Messiah (as) traced in detail the final journey of Jesus. New facts came to light. As the Ahmadiyya Movement spread to Kashmir and people started coming to him, they spoke of a prophet having been buried right in Srinagar. Ahadith have stated clearly that one of the main missions of the advent of the Promised Messiah was “Kasr-e-Salib” that is to demolish the theory of the death of Jesus on the Cross which forms the cornerstone of the Christian belief. The French doctor, F. Bernier, who accompanied the Mogul Emperor, Aurangzeb, to Kashmir, had also spoken of a tomb of Jesus. Hazrat Maulavi Hakim Nuruddin (who hails from Behra and lived in Kashmir for 14 years) affirmed that there existed the tomb of a prophet who was called “Yuz Asaf” (apparently a corruption of Jesus). He was reported to have come to Kashmir from another country about 1900 years before. According to some, the tomb has also been described as the “Tomb of ‘Isa Sahib.” He was also called a prince. The tomb is situated in Mohalla Khanyar, Srinagar. This part of the town is completely dominated by Muslims and there is no house of Hindus near the shrine. When the Promised Messiah (as), thought over the matter and investigated and went deep into it, he was convinced in every way that it was the tomb of Jesus.

In short, guided by God and by his wonderful power of inference and research, the Promised Messiah (as), towards the end of 1895, arrived at a clear conclusion that Jesus had come to India after the crucifixion and that the tomb found in Kashmir was that of Jesus and none else. He also proved from various sources that Jesus did not die on the Cross, and the Gospels themselves confirm that Jesus remained on the Cross only for a few hours; his bones were not broken and blood flowed when a spear touched the wounded portion of Jesus. Jesus met the disciples afterwards, travelled to Galilee, ate bread and meat and showed his wounds to his disciples. Some of the medical treatises state that a special ointment was prepared to heal the wounds of Jesus. Some Sources Supporting the Promised Messiah’s Assertion H. Spender Lewis, in his book, Mystical Life of Jesus says that Jesus did not die on the Cross and that physicians helped him to regain the strength and vitality. E. B. Docker, District Judge, Sydney, holds the same view in his valuable book, Jesus Did Not Die Upon the Cross (1920). Dr. Hugo Toll in his brilliant book, Dog Jesus pa Korset (it consists of 190 pages published in Stockholm, 1928) proves medically that Jesus did not die on the Cross. Dr. Hugo Toll was an eminent medical authority and was in-charge of Stockholm Hospital from 1897 to 1923.
